Abstract

Homozygous Hb E [β26(B8)Glu→Lys; HBB: c.79G > A] is a clinically mild disease with no significant symptoms. Very few studies are available on clinical variability in Hb E disorders. We report the profile of a series of homozygous Hb E patients in the Indian population. We analyzed various genetic factors that contribute to the heterogeneity in the phenotype of homozygous Hb E patients. Analysis of these parameters further enhances our understanding of the Hb E syndrome.
